Bees and other pollinators support the interactive ecosystems of plants and animals on land, but the long-term health of bee populations in most parts of the world remains unclear.

(e) The Review Conference reaffirm the fundamental principle of compatibility contained in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and set out in article 7 of the Agreement, with specific reference to the high seas and the necessity of not applying measures in the high seas that might undermine the efficacy of the measures applied to straddling fish stocks and highly migratory fish stocks by the coastal State.

(f) Note with interest and appreciate the progress achieved in the application of the precautionary approach in order to ensure long-term conservation of straddling fish stocks and highly migratory fish stocks and marine ecosystems and stress the need to specify the concept and the implementation of the ecosystem approach.

These subjects included, but were not limited to: combating IUU fishing; managing fishing capacity; ecolabelling and aquaculture certification; supporting small-scale fisheries; adopting an ecosystem approach to capture fisheries and aquaculture; identification of vulnerable marine ecosystems; rebuilding of stocks; low levels of financial and human resources; pollution control; climate change; bycatch; and, where a performance review had taken place, the ongoing need to address its recommendations.

Capture production of mussels and oysters, for which reporting countries often have difficulty in separating harvest of natural populations from aquaculture production, has not varied much over the years, but an overall downward trend can be noted.

The report also identifies information gaps, and makes suggestions on how best to increase the knowledge of communities associated with cobalt-rich crusts and their vulnerability to commercial activity associated with these minerals, including recommendations that may be reflected in future guidance to exploration contractors.

The framework asks a number of questions to prompt information collection and analysis of key areas, about (a) the existence and vulnerability of national, ethnic, racial or religious group(s); (b) human rights violations committed against such group(s); (c) domestic capacity to prevent genocide; (d) the existence of armed opposition actors; (e) the existence of any significant political or economic other motivation encouraging political leaders to stoke divisions between groups; (f) whether elements of the crime of genocide are already occurring; (g) whether there are moments of particular vulnerability approaching; and (h) whether there is a discernible intent to commit to destroy a national, ethnic, racial or religious population group.

The Office of the High Representative organized capacity-building events to strengthen the negotiating capability of officials of small island developing States and provided support to negotiations in meetings concerning fish stocks.

Those factors could affect health, expose more areas to drought and desertification, and reduce Mediterranean fish stocks.

(Sect. C) States should facilitate mutually advantageous fishing agreements between small island developing States and foreign fishing groups, taking into account the fish stocks agreement, setting up regional and other joint venture fishing enterprises and providing other international support (integrated resource management, monitoring, control and surveillance, etc.).

In its 1997 Mercury Study Report to Congress, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency concluded that mercury also may pose a risk to some adults and wildlife populations that consume large amounts of fish that is contaminated by mercury (USGS 2000).

To achieve this, we commit to urgently develop and implement science-based management plans, including by reducing or suspending fishing catch and fishing effort commensurate with the status of the stock.

36. In order to ensure equality in practice, Turkey collaborated with representatives of, inter alia, the Alevis and the Roma, and was reviewing the curriculums in order to eliminate any discriminatory items.

They are affected mainly by problems that include coastal flooding, the disappearance of some islands into the sea, a reduction in freshwater resources, severe drought, crop losses and an increased incidence of disease, as well as threats to fish stocks, which represent the main food source for many communities in those States.

Membership to NUCLEUS group (work in framework of collective pig breeding on 4 main breeds and on 2 autonomous populations) and Network organization (IFIP-INRA) allows us to benefit from competences and equipments for research (People and public stations).

Overall, I observed changes in body size and lateral plate number in the introduced population that parallel changes documented in established natural freshwater populations of threespine stickleback, implying that adaptation to the multiple challenges associated with life in freshwater environments may occur rapidly[Acta Zoologica Sinica 52(3): 483–490, 2006].

In this regard, we further commit to urgently take the measures necessary to maintain or restore all stocks at least to levels that can produce the maximum sustainable yield, with the aim of achieving these goals in the shortest time feasible, as determined by their biological characteristics.

Australia informed the meeting of its forthcoming contribution to the Assistance Fund under Part VII of the Agreement for the Implementation of the Provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982 relating to the Conservation and Management of Straddling Fish Stocks and Highly Migratory Fish Stocks.

arrangements to collect and, where appropriate, report to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations required catch and effort data, and fisheryrelated information, in a complete, accurate and timely way, including for straddling fish stocks and highly migratory fish stocks within and beyond areas under national jurisdiction, discrete high seas fish stocks, and by-catch and discards; and, where they do not exist, to establish processes to strengthen data collection and reporting by members of regional fisheries management organizations and arrangements, including through regular reviews of member compliance with such obligations, and, when such obligations are not met, require the member concerned to rectify the problem, including through the preparation of plans of action with timelines
